Answer #1

Don’t quit school…especially since you’re almost done. And honestly, I live in the united states so it may be different but anymore even a factory wants you to have a high school diploma or a GED over here.

Answer #2

Your chances of becoming a successful chef are much better if you compleete high school!! Anywhere you might want to be employed in the future will be waaay more likely to accept you if you have your secondary school diploma. Just finish it! Good Luck!!

Answer #3

You made it this far, it’d be silly to quit school now. Just hang in there a few months longer.

Answer #4

You go from dropping out of school, to telling us about your dad? You’ve obviously made these two into some type of connection. Don’t quit school, it will be the mistake of your life. I’m 17 and I got kicked out, and it was only then when I realized that highschool were the best years of my life. Becoming a chef, going off of what I know, is something that takes a lot of work, and dedication. If your not going to finish your 12th year of school, (the last) then you shouldnt desire something that takes practice and determination.
